Fate Outsmarts Desire, the debut album by UK based progressive rock outfit Kaprekar’s Constant, has been voted best album of 2017 by listeners to The Prog Mill. Kaprekars take the title from Big Big Train, who won last years poll with Folklore.

Big Big Train’s FOLKLORE has been voted the PROG MILL listeners album of 2016, beating off strong competition from Marillion’s FEAR, Gandalf Fist’s epic The Clockwork Fable and Freedom to Glide’s album Fall.

Review by Pagano — DAAL have become a very complex and sophisticated machinery. The last goal of the duo, composed bythe keyboardist Alfio Costa and the drummer Davide Guidoni, is a double publication: two albumsbuilt on two styles opposite each other. "Decalogue of Darkness" collects ten chapters, and alreadyfrom certain details you can see some […]

Review by Second Endeavour — Hailing from Czech Republic, FACE THE DAY is a brainchild of Martin Schuster. Suffice to say, then, he's a very talented lad who takes on lead vocal duties, and plays other stuff too: guitars, bass, piano, virtual instruments. As if this wasn't enough, Martin has invited some friends for his […]

Review by Aussie-Byrd-Brother — Formed in 2008 and hailing from Tuscany, young Italian band Tacita Intesa released an energetic little self-titled disc back in 2014 that showed tons of promise with its mix of peppy song-writing and light Italian prog-rock influences. Fast-forward a couple of years, some honing of skills further and one confidence-boosting pledge-music […]

Review by TenYearsAfter — The prime mover of the highly acclaimed USA prog folk formation Esthema (which means emotion in Greek) is Andy Milas, he got the band together in 2006. One year later they released their first CD, Apart From The Rest, followed by Hereness And Nowness Of Things (2009), Long Goodbye (2014) and […]

Review by ProgSerge — Prog lovers, let's unite to thank Sweden! Indeed, we owe a debt of gratitude to the musicians of this country. The northernity of a population of only ten million people generously fuelled the gradual renewal of the 1990s and continues to this day. Examples include LANDBERK, GALLEON, ANEKDOTEN, THE FLOWER KINGS, […]

Review by Rivertree — Offshoot, new outfit, solo project? Whatever, it's your choice. Bass player Johan Brand, known as afounding member of the acclaimed nordic prog band Änglagård, on this occasion ventures to move onhis own feet. More or less, as he also relies on Thomas Johnson (keyboards) and drummer ErikHammarström concerning the recordings. Anyhow, […]

Review by sl75 — A mere two years wait this time. Barron is gone, leaving Bjerre as the only constant member. Bjerre switches to bass, and a new rhythm guitarist comes in, apparently as Bjerre's main collaborator (judging by the production credits). We also get a keyboard player - one who seems to mostly favour […]

Review by Lunatic84 — The "problem" with 3RDegree is they raise the bar-on themselves(!)-from album to album so much so that you think they've done the best they could with a release and it hits you the right way and you rate it highly. But then a few years pass and they cast a shadow […]

Review by Fredsimoneau — I guess I also have to put my two words about this wonderful album. I will tell you the truth, Ididn't know what to expect. I am a huge Anglagard's fan and was hoping to find similarities but yetdifferences. When I listened to it the first time around, I automatically felt […]

Review by kev rowland — I'm sure I can't be the only Tull fan who can't understand how there can be a Jethro Tull without Martin Lancelot Barre being the perfect foil to Ian, but there it is (mind you, Ian does have history in this regard, look at what happened to the classic line-up). […]
